Replying to a comment on:
Cyber Junkie (Free verse) by J.B. Manning
Iâm am a slut to lifeâs conjuncture
A symptom of conjecture
The human condition
Iâm sick with it
We stink of it
And wallow in it happily
Merrily dancing in shit
Like the pigs from which we eat
Devouring our very form
As it lies beneath our feet
Reflecting our purity
Or the illusion of it
Man and beast are but severed by our thoughts
Nothing short of time can commend the dying
And everything between us is a lie
âTis life of which I speak
this manor of it fades into the night
as into day
not walking, but falling we are
and laughing still today
where many men have faced their dreams
and children in their nightmare days would scream
thereâs little left to assume
between our very own connections
and I am rotting inside beside you
With a wisp of wanting breath I die
Into the depths of my own conception
Dance with me my devil child
Dance
We are superstars and no one else can see us
Jack in cyber junkie
Iâve got what you need
On your knees
I said On Your Knees!
